    How long before promotional companies start lawsuits against boxers for this kind of thing? Cancelling an entire event can't be cheap.

    Okolie is never getting on a big show again :lol: I guess 'The Sauce' shouldn't have been so saucy. I expect an exquisite shoulder roll demonstration from our Frank soon.

    I already didn't like Okolie with his ugly octopus style.

    But now he's the reason a whole card got cancelled he's definitely on my list for one of my most hated boxers of this generation.

    Okolie found a way out, a fight was approaching with a physically bigger fighter who, despite his three defeats, has experience...

    It is NOT OK-olie.

    Hope they don't drug test Miller or all this weekend's fights will be 86'ed.

    I hope they do, and if the allegations against Okolie are substantiated, he should be banned for life.

    Should Tyson Fury have been banned for life? He failed a drug test with serious PEDs in his system. Then to top it off, he convinced a guy to lie for him and claim he sold Fury tainted boar meat. Seems much worse than what Okolie has done.

    If he was found guilty? Yes. I have zero tolerance for drug cheats in any sport. But as far as I'm aware, the doping agency for whatever reason failed to pursue it.

    I didn’t care for Okolie’s whole “I truly hope sense will prevail” bollocks. Trying to gaslight boxing fans into not scrutinising his wilful steroid usage, or at the very least, his lax attitude towards what supplements and medicines he puts in his body.

    He’s always been a horrible fighter to watch, and someone who has a level of cockiness that isn’t substantiated by his skill or accolades. I hope this proves to be the end of his career.
